I wrote this last week when we were on our white water vacation down the Green River through the Gates of Lodore. Sitting here in my tent with total darkness outside. I am listening to an orchestra of bugs so loud that I know I will need earplugs again to sleep. I can hear the gentle stream of running water below us. My boys are sound asleep in a tent under a magnificent star filled sky like I have never seen before. They are exhausted from a full day of white water rafting
